The Battle in My Mind

  In today’s world, where marriages face constant pressures from external and spiritual forces, one truth stands unshaken:  a woman is greatly blessed when her husband takes his rightful role as a spiritual covering in their relationship and family.  This is not about domination or control, but about divine order, protection, and partnership as God designed it.

As I await and prepare for our connection, there are some things I would like you to know...  Timing is everything.... Our first level of commitment is to God. We owe him a return on his investment .

Our connectivity will be a phenomenal asset to our commitment.  Future husband, I want you to thoroughly comprehend the immense difficulty of watching everyone else appear to be happily in love, meanwhile I constantly get approached by .... Well let's just say, "developing" men. (Yeah, developing men... That was a nice way to put it.) perhaps "poor timing " or "premature males ". Who knows... My conscious decision at age 14 to make better and intentional choices of being a lady with attempts to keep my sanctuary essential were so th...
